Jesus Isનમૂનો

Day 19: Interruptible and/or Task-oriented

Jesus was so close with the heart of God that He was able to be interrupted when He was on a mission from God, but He was also able to NOT meet everyone’s immediate and demanding needs. This is a challenging middle ground to exist, to remain responsive to the needs around us, but also to have clear boundaries when we know that we’ve been commissioned to complete a certain task. Jesus knew when he needed to draw away to be with His Father, even when that meant not healing everyone or feeding everyone in the moment, but He also knew when to allow himself to be interrupted and meet a need in the moment.

3) Write a short statement to remind yourself of these multi-faceted truths about Jesus.

a) Mark 5:21-43

b) Luke 5:18-20

c) John 11:1-7
